More teenagers 'addicted' to computer games

A British rehabilitation centre which usually deals with alcohol and drug-related issues has said it has seen a dramatic rise in the number of parents seeking help for teenagers with so-called gaming addiction.

The games industry says there is no proven link between games and addiction, but now there are calls for more research on the issue.

The BBC's Andy Akinwolere reports.

Viewers in the West Midlands can see more on this story on Monday 14 September at 1930 on BBC One and afterwards on the BBC iPlayer.
